Growing in Times of Adjustment

…Do not be afraid, for I am with you…. –Genesis 26:24 NIV

A chiropractor would recommend an adjustment to help align the spine, bringing health to the whole body. A banker would explain that an adjustment is necessary to balance the books. A teacher would explain that time is needed to get used to a new schedule. A boss would say that adjustments are part of everyday life in the office. At some point, you may have to adjust the time you wake up, your health habits, or the way you communicate.

Adjustment involves action. It’s not about watching the clock, or waiting for the next modification to come. Rather, it’s about how you actively adapt to each new season of life. But, just as there is pain when working muscles that haven’t been used in a long time, so there is pain that come with life adjustments. It is important to remember that the efforts are worthwhile and that there is beauty within every season.

Whatever you’re going through today, whether it’s an easy season or a challenging one, look for growth opportunities. God promises that your nights won’t last forever and joy comes in the morning. Trust that the Lord is with you as He’s growing you during times of adjustment. Be open to the pruning process.
